2 second left. The Center grabbed defensive rebound, then suddenly can still make an inside shot attempt...and they won the match...how could this happen? 2 sec is enough to run from one court end to another end?

Cheers

Not to defend the engine blindly, but it's possible, though highly unlikely. The clock starts running only when a player catches the ball so it's possible that a heave from the other side of the court could have been cought and the player scored.

That is only if the clock was stopped before tho, which wasn't the case. The ball was live, the clock ticking, it's pretty difficult to make a pass like that and still manage to shoot.
But anyway, that would be real life, such things are common in BB. I don't think it's a bug.

have you actually watched the game? the scorer rebounded, so the clock is ticking, then he runs to other half of the court and attempts a lay-up. and this happens only in two seconds. rebound, run, lay-up.

There are a bunch of unrealistic staff with the game engine:
- player catching an offensive rebound after he shot a long 3 pointer.
- worst rebounder of the team getting the rebound after a FT (he shouldn't be anywhere near the basket unless he shots it).
- teams still trying to catch up in the last seconds even if they are down by 8 with 2 seconds to go.

Apart maybe from the last one they are pretty minor flaws. Sooner or later they should be improved, but they surely are not high priority.

This event is simply impossible as you cant run a distance of ~20-28m in less than 2 seconds (german football NT players need around 2 seconds for 10m and around 4 seconds for 30m) - so I am really puzzled why sombebody would give the OP a 1-ball rating for his complaint...

it never says where he gets the rebound so technically he may have got the rebound anywhere on the court.

I seriously doubt that sb. would grab a rebound in the opponents half in the last seconds of a close game - but of course my opinion is complete bs. as I got 1-balled again. facepalm.jpg

Yeah, it's impossible, I agree. There are other impossible things that happen so I'll add this one to the list. It will probably get fixed in the next revision of the game engine, but I wouldn't hold my breath

try this one. player a shoots and misses, one second left. player b grabs offensive rebound, passes back to player a who passes to player c who makes the shot.

it would be nice if they could fix the timing when it comes to plays like that, but we all are affected by it and i have been on the winning end a couple times. so i cant complain too much but it seems like a coin flip wins and loses those games.
